<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Mill Cove Treasures, post: 901289, member: 60&quot;]It reminds me of a Morris Katz painting or a borscht belt (Catskills) guest painting. He painted with a palette knife and toilet paper.&nbsp;&nbsp; Back in the 50s and 60s, some of the big resorts had classes for guests so they could complete a painting of their own.&nbsp; Morris Katz taught some of those classes.&nbsp; He was famous for being the fastest comedian&nbsp; painter in the world. He toured the resorts or places like Fountainbleau Hotel in Miami and he would sell his paintings while doing a comedy show. He was also known for his philanthropy and did a lot of fund raising events.&nbsp; Since this isn&#039;t signed, I think this would have been a landscape piece by a guest or something they did on their own when they got home. I&#039;ve sold a few of his paintings and some sell for decent money depending on the subject. </p><p><br /></p><p>Here is a video that shows him painting.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p><p>[MEDIA=youtube]Fhzz45RRXtY[/MEDIA][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
